in texas, only 81 out of 254 counties in texas even have a dmv. even if you wanted to get the i.d., it's just very difficult to get it in certain places. we're creating all these new hurdles to voting for no reason other than that republicans want to make it harder for traditionally democratic constituents to be able to cast a ballot. this all happened after the election of barack obama. it the wasn't a coincidence. republicans saw how obama won in 2008 by turning out a coalition dst young voters. >> caller: hispanic and african-american voters and decided we're going to make it tougher for those voters to vote in 2012. it's not about the voter fraud. it's about the gop shaping electorate in their own favor. >> there is no coincidence this is happening now after the election of barack obama. >> still no solution to the 87 examples of voter fraud. >> how about the -- what's your solution of five million people being disenfranchised in the next election. >> if you don't like voter i.d., that's okay with me. i'd love another option to deal with the b

texas actually did really well. they didn't have the same increase in housing values during the boom period. they've actually had an easier recession than a lot of other states. california and i think a lot of it came about during the boom period where a lot of these places stockton for example, which is another city that's going bankrupt, they thought that they were going to have this huge boom and they saw their house prices expand. they saw a lot of investment and development and when it all dried up, they were sort of left holding the bag. they had increased costs and no money coming in to do it. in some ways the texas example is a place where your revenues are much more stable because it's based so much more on property and sales taxes. go on. >> i was going to thank you. we have to move on. thank you for your contribution. straight ahead, we're going to talk about romney, bain and the condy rice rumor mill. fasten your seat belts. when we got to this segment in our editorial meeting this morning, it was more c

rick perry happens to be the governor of texas. one in four of texas residents have no health insurance. costs have skyrocketed faster than the national average, but do you think that means he's going to go along with the plan? texas isn't alone here. seven states have said they're opting out and another eight look likely to. that means 2 million residents will continue on without health insurance. these states have done the worst job of covering the uninsured. have the greatest need for federal assistance and they are the least likely to accept health. if that's not politics over principle, i don't know what is. 17 million uninsured americans can't wait another decade until republicans have moved on through another litmusç test. privatetizing military, eliminating public education or requiring poor people to pay more taxes. i could care less whether we call the mandate a tax or a go america surcharge. many americans right now, in the fate of 17 million of these uninsured americans is in the hand of america's governors. will poli
